What if you could get beautiful, professional motherhood portraits in a short, home session—at a fraction of the cost?
I know that a full family photoshoot with an experienced professional photographer is a big investment. That’s why, for this Mother’s Day, I’m offering a one-off, shorter Motherhood session for families local to Dulwich—available as a gift voucher. It’s a simple way to get mums in the picture with their children at home, in a relaxed setting, without the commitment of a full session.
This session is perfect for you if…
-
If you, like me, are always the one behind the camera, let’s change that. This session gives you the chance to be present in beautiful, professional photos with your family—no selfies required.
-
This session is perfect for documenting those first few months of motherhood in a relaxed home setting or capturing the first interactions between your baby and their siblings.
-
As exhausting as they can be, those toddler years are wild. I miss hanging around with a small person acting like they’re drunk at all times! It’s such a premium time to photograph—full of personality, mischief, and fleeting moments you’ll want to remember, especially before the next big transition to school.

If your partner is anything like mine and refuses to be in a family photoshoot, this is your chance to get some beautiful mum & baby photographs—without the pressure of a full session.
Hello, I’m Fran. I’m an award-winning photographer based in Dulwich, specialising in reportage-style photography. I'm passionate about capturing what real family feels like.
I work with modern families who value authentic, meaningful photographs but feel uneasy about posing or staging. Through my relaxed home photoshoots, I capture the beauty of everyday family life, creating timeless images that are deeply personal and uniquely yours.
For the last three years, I’ve been ranked among the top 10 documentary family photographers in the UK. My work has been featured in Vogue and Grazia.
Time to treat yourself
I take a limited number of sessions to ensure each client gets a truly personalised experience. Booking is easy and convenient, simply send me an email with your gift voucher, and your photoshoot experience begins right away, with me guiding you through the process.
“I have just received the most beautiful photos from Fran. She perfectly captured me with our 8 week old daughter, while also making me feel so at ease and comfortable throughout the whole shoot.” - Cara
FAQs
-
The photoshoot is relaxed and lasts about 30-45 minutes, allowing plenty of time for natural moments to unfold. I will give minor direction to maximise the available light and colour palettes.
-
One of the great things about my photoshoots is that no preparation is needed—no tidying up or buying special outfits. Before our session, I'll send you a short, thoughtful questionnaire to learn about you and your children. You'll also receive expert guidance on what to expect, helping you feel confident and at ease on the day.
-
Rest assured, this is not an issue. As an experienced documentary photographer, I’m skilled in working with any light or space, using compositional techniques to elevate the photographs, no matter the environment. My ethos focuses on capturing real moments and emotions, not perfectly styled spaces.
-
There is no need to postpone the shoot if someone has a minor illness, such a cold. However, if it’s something more serious, we can postpone once at no extra cost.
